Dow, Jim: American Studies (Signed)

$195.00

2011 / First Edition

Publisher: powerHouse Books

Signed.

Drawing on 40 years of American visual history, Jim Dow’s photography documents a landscape defined by its diners, taco trucks, athletic fields, and roadside architecture. In a departure from his previous work Marking the Land, Dow integrates color photography and maps alongside his signature black-and-white images, though he maintains his focus on unpeopled spaces. Compared to today’s rapidly changing environment, these spaces record an earlier era of human-centric craftsmanship—such as hand-painted murals and folk art—that is increasingly replaced by standardized, commercial designs.

Condition: Very good condition. Hardcover. Minimal wear to covers. Slight yellowing to the spine. Pages are in clean condition. Signed and inscribed on the half-title page.
